Ctrl + Shift + Down Arrow

[BrianUni]

When I hold down the Ctrl button and the Shift Button, then press the down arrow, I expect the entire line of text to be highlighted.  

Instead, the line below simply gets moved down.

Why do you expect that?

Shift+End selects from the text cursor to the end of the line.

Looking at 4 other applications I have on Windows:

1. In one, Ctrl+shift+Down selects the next line of text, but not the current one.
2. In another, it does nothing at all. (Also true in Affinity Designer.)
3. In another, it selects from the text cursor to the end of a paragraph.

In Publisher, the default shortcuts define Ctrl+Shift+Down as affecting paragraph leading:

Thanks so much, Walt!

I was expecting it to work the same as Serif Page Plus X9.  

But, I actually like the Paragraph Spacing Adjustment, too! 

Thanks for your help!

You're welcome.

One other hint: Don't expect any carryover from how PPX9 worked. Affinity Publisher is a completely new product written from scratch. You will (I believe) find many differences in how things work, even for those cases where both provide the same or similar functions.
